Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From crusty cowboys ("Luther Morse") to fantasy tales ("The King's Return") to the gossip at Francine's Beauty Boutique ("Chronicles of the Sisters of the Mystic Night"), Prairie Wind is a collection of poems and stories like you've never read before. Colorful historic figures and situations ("Emmett Dalton at Horsethief Canyon") and Christmas stories that will touch the heart with their timeless message are part of what makes Prairie Wind an enjoyable read. Writer/poet Norm Rourke's experience as a reporter, feature writer and author provides the source of the poems and stories in Prairie Wind. "It is ordinary people going about their ordinary daily lives that make some of the best subjects. Through poetry and the stories in Prairie Wind, I've tried to tell interesting and sometimes humorous anecdotes. Poetry and poetry blended with stories should be an enjoyable experience. Prairie Wind offers something for everyone. I write to be read," he says. "Poetry doesn't have to be dull and unexciting. Telling a story in verse can be as effective as in prose. Prairie Wind isn't your traditional academic approach to poetry. Luther Morse is real; little Jake the burro is a cookie-eating friend; and Christmas did come in a Chevy truck."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the second book from Camp Pope Publishing, featuring the poetry of Joe Kyugen Michaud and the photographs of Steve Bartelt. Joe is associated with the Iowa City Soto Zen Center and Steve is a member of the Midwest Soto Zen Community out of Madison, Wisconsin. They authored and illustrated a previous book, namely, Mindscapes: Selected Poems of the Way in 2015. Joe has been writing "prairie poetry" since he moved to Iowa in 1972. Prairie Wind: Prairie Poems with a Zen Flavor consists of poems that arise from his nature experience mainly of eastern Iowa, with an occasional lapse of homesickness for his home state of Maine. In his introduction, Joe tells us that the purpose of a Zen nature poem is to transmit to the reader the essence of his aesthetic and or spiritual experience of nature. Steve would agree that this is also the purpose of a Zen approach to photography. In both cases, it is the meditation-cleansed windows of perception that seek to portray the silence and wholeness that permeate the natural world, in an experience called "suchness" which non-meditators may know as "aesthetic arrest." See the prairie with fresh eyes. Read and enjoy.

Book excerpt: Horse Prayers, Poems from the Prairie, is a collection of poetry from a small farm on the Colorado prairie; tiny stories in simple words, praise for the beautiful fragile land, and love poems to horses. This is a 106-page book of poetry and full-color photography, a softcover mini-coffee table book.Some heartfelt, some humorous, these poems are a howl to the prairie wind. I'm a woman on a farm, wonderstruck by this simple life with its plain beauty; the comfort of daily chores and bittersweet sunsets. Even my words can't look away. And the horses. This gray mare isn't over that girlish phase. None of us are, so I write love poems to horses, putting words to this equine passion that powers a central part of our lives. What is it that pulls us so fiercely to horses?Horse Prayers is verse but this love affair with poems doesn't threaten my long-term relationship with writing non-fiction. It's more like an inky ménage à trois.WishWe felt them closebefore we had skin;from an infinite prairiethe vibration began.A slow rolling nickerrumbled, more feltthan heard. Horsescalled to us, beforewe were born, so wewould remember theirwarm breath when we first saw fairy-tale imagesin children's books. We were theirs long before we called them our own.

Book excerpt: This slender volume, a poetic journal, offers slices of history, some segments of one man's life, and bits of modern madness. We can listen for the voices of the wind those heard by the indigenous people and those whispered to the one waiting impatiently for that bitch who is holding up the checkout line at Safeway. We capture a vision of an inland, waterless sea, wind-blown waves of prairie grasses beating on the shore of distant hills and we share the joy of first-time home ownership. The realities of poverty, the hardship of prairie living, and the excitement of discovery bring life to a time that many of us do not remember. We share more up to date moments with Maynard Ferguson and Lawrence Welk even while we consider the qualifications of candidates for the Nitwits Hall of Fame. Voices of the Wind, they are part of our heritage and they deserve to be heard.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fort Worth is the City of Cowboys and Cultureand where the West begins. Its citizens highlight the Texas can-do spirit and the determination and compassion to make a difference, to be legendary. When Buckley (B.B.) Paddock persuaded the railroad to lay track west of Dallas, a city was born and so was opportunity. Cowboys like T.J. Ryon rode into town with their cattle. J. Frank Norris preached against the vices in Hells Half Acre while Jennie Schueber tried to rally support for a free library. Feisty entrepreneurs like Ninnie Baird and John B. Laneri baked bread and sold pasta noodles. Cowtown also boasts such notables as Edna Gladney, who helped countless orphans find a home; the Clark brothers, who brought Texas Christian University home; and Claude R. Platte, who bravely served as a Tuskegee airman. These fine folks are just a sampling of Fort Worths fascinatingand sometimes infamouscharacters.
